'R K Narayan has few equals among modern novelists' Times Literary Supplement
‘One of the most charming masters of twentieth-century fiction’ Allan Masie, Scotsman
In the shade of a banyan tree sits Margayva, self-styled advisor on the complex minor transactions which are an integral part of Indian life. Who else would you consult if you wanted a loan from the local Co-operative Bank?
But a scrape with officialdom in the form of an unplanned interview with the Bank’s Secretary – and a mishap which finds his spoilt son Balu throwing his accounts book down a drain – temporarily cuts short a lucrative career...
‘Original, charming, lively, engaging and subtle’ Times of India
